Abstract

Simian virus 40 (SV40)-infected CV1 cells exposed to hypoxia show an inhibition of viral replication. Reoxygenation after several hours of hypoxia results in new initiations followed by a nearly synchronous round of SV40 replication. In this communication, we examined the effect of glucose on inhibition of viral DNA replication under hypoxia. We found that glucose stimulated SV40 DNA replication under hypoxia in two different ways. First, the rate of DNA synthesis, i.e. the fork propagation rate, increased. This effect seemed to be mediated by inhibition of mitochondrial respiration by glucose (Crabtree effect). Inhibition of mitochondrial respiration probably resulted in a higher intracellular oxygen concentration and an activation of oxygen-dependent ribonucleotide reductase, which provides the precursors for DNA synthesis. This glucose effect was consequently strongly dependent on the strength of hypoxia and the extent of intracellular respiration; hypoxic gassing with 10 ppm instead of 200-400 ppm O(2) or treatment of hypoxic cells with a mitochondrial uncoupler (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) reduced the glucose effect on replication, whereas antimycin A, an inhibitor of respiration, increased it. The second eff...Continue Reading
